Good to know that it is working! I've run i386 earlier, but thought it
was time to try 64-bit.

I've been quite happy with Debian. Previously I was using BSD, and it
was almost impossible to upgrade the system. And apt / dpkg have never
failed me, very impressive. I guess rhel works well also, but I've
little experience with it.

Why doesn't Debian use the rhel6-openvz-kernel if that is the one that
is maintained?
Are you sure they use an outdated kernel?

I have to read up on this, the next server maybe should use another
distro for the HN.
Maybe I will try switch to lxc instead of openvz as it is in the
mainline kernel now. After all I need two things: Isolation, and the
possibility to run multiple asterisk VEs on the same physical machine.
